And certain days having intervined, Agrippa the king and Bernice arrived at Cesarea, having saluted Festus.

And Agrippa said to Festus, I wished myself also to hear the man. And he said, Tomorrow thou shalt hear him.

Therefore the morrow, Agrippa having come, and Bernice, with much display, and having come into the hall, also with captains of thousands, and men of the city being in eminence, and Festus having commanded, Paul was brought.

And Festus said, King Agrippa, and all men being present with us, ye behold this, of whom all the multitude of Jews addressed me, both in Jerusalem and here, crying out he must no more live.

Of whom I have not anything certain to write to the lord. Wherefore I brought him to you, and especially to thee, king Agrippa, so that, examination having been, I should have some thing to write.

And Agrippa said to Paul, It is permitted thee to speak for thyself. Then Paul defended himself, having stretched out the hand:

Concerning all of which I am accused by the Jews, king Agrippa, I deem myself happy, being about to defend myself to thee this day:

To which our twelve tribes, serving night and day, hope to arrive. For which hope I am accused, king Agrippa, by the Jews.

Wherefore, O king Agrippa, I was not disobedient to the heavenly vision:

Believest thou the prophets, king Agrippa? I know that thou believest.

And Agrippa said to Paul, In a little thou persuadest me to be a Christian.

And Agrippa said to Festus, This man could have been loosed, if he had not appealed to Caesar.
